Embers of Mirrim is designed with a mixture of classic platforming, puzzle-solving, boss fights, and thrilling chases, think Ori and the Blind Forest. It’s set to release to Xbox One, PC, and PlayStation 4 in spring 2017.

You’ll play as a stylish character with twice the personality. Your ability to split into dark and light embers will add an interesting twist to the gameplay.
